Laser Hair Removal Damage my Breast Implants?

There should be no problem at all with doing this after your breast augmentation. Your hair follicles are way up in the skin and this is where the laser targets.  Even if they were doing it with a light laser it sill woudn't cause a problem since it won't even reach the implant surface.
Go for it!

Thanks for your question -

 

There should be no problems with laser hair removal and your implants.  It is important to avoid direct laser energy to your incisions for the first 6 months while they heal.  Your provider may custom design shielding to avoid your scars if the hair removal area is close.

 

I hope this helps!

Whether or not your implants are above or below the muscle, laser hair removal to your areaola should be safe. In reality, energy from the laser should not penetrate deep enough to injure the implant. That being said, if you have extremely thin skin and if your surgeon placed the implant through an incision around the areola, there may be a slightly greater risk for injury but it should still be minimal.
I hope that helps.

There should be no problem at all having laser hair removal after a breast augmentation. Hormonal changes can make the hair follicles start to grow around the nipple. The laser does not reach the implant surface.

There is no contraindication for laser to be performed on a breast that has an implant. There is no chance it could damage the implant. Now, some lasers used on the skin are performed using the patients level of discomfort as to a guide to the settings for the laser. You would not want to use one of these lasers in the early postoperative period when there could be residual numbness to the area.

There is no contraindication between breast implants and laser hair removal. Laser hair removal only targets the melanin in the hair follicle and thus has no adverse affect on the breast implants.

Your situation is not unique. Hormonal changes can make the hair follicles start to grow around the nipple. Laser hair removal will not damage the breast implants. 

Your problem is not isolated. Hair can and does grow around the areola, this is common. LASER hair removal will not affect or damage your implant. Good luck.

Lase hair removal does not affect the breast implants at all.

Hair removal is done with lasers in the 1064 nm wavelength or using certain frequencies of IPL (BBL). Both target the hair follicles in the deep dermis, the mid layer of skin.
As such these lasers do NOT penetrate full thickness through the skin and will NOT reach or affect breast implants (or any other implants) which are placed much deeper.
